Almost there...

Nov 07, 2009

So I leave first thing Monday morning and I couldn't be more excited.  Our house has been a flury of activity with my husband's family visiting us and a new puppy joining our ranks so I'm actually looking forward to being cut open just to get some peace and quiet (and SLEEP)! *lol* actually I know this is no laughing matter but I have been chomping at my bit to have my surgery over the past month and being in the presence of his very skinny family has definitely driven the point home - I can't wait to be comfortable in my own skin again.

I haven't even been doing the food funeral thing that everyone seems to mention - I've been on a clean eating diet for the past year now and just really don't have as many cravings as I thought I would. I just keep thinking about our impending trip to the dominican and the terror that summer weather, bathing suits and navigating massive buffet tables trying to fortify my willpower.  That is more than enough to make me skip to the airport at 4am on a Monday and feel excitement at the prospect of never ever having to feel like this again.  I would give up every food in the world to have that feeling.

And so, no nerves, no stress, just absolutely beyond-ready to get started and get on with the rest of my life. 

Ligher dayz ahead - you can bet on that!
